Switching Roles

September 14, 2010 by Julie 17 Comments

Sick boy thanks you guys for all of your get well wishes!

He also thanked me for preparing a yummy dinner of BBQ pulled chicken with roasted asparagus.

While I tended to the chicken and veggies, Ryan helped out by balling a large honeydew that we enjoyed along with our meal.

The melon was deliciously sweet and juicy.

We actually switched tasks halfway through dinner preparation. Ryan pulled the remaining chicken breasts and I balled the second half of the melon. What can I say, he’s the meat man after all… and I really don’t care for cutting or pulling meat.

Yaa-zum!

I’m off to hang out with Ryan and Sadie on the couch and catch up on last week’s episode of Jersey Shore.

Don’t knock it ‘til ya watch it! 😉

If you’re feeling extra snacky today, pop on over to Tina’s blog and bid on some yummy baked goods, including my flourless peanut butter cookies! All of the money raised will go to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Now go eat some cookies for cancer! 😉

    Your meals always look so great and simple, which is nice because when you’re a student it’s hard to prepare elaborate meals. Your meals are the perfect balance!

    I can’t stand pulling/shredding meat either. Definitely Peter’s job. Hope Ryan feels better.

    i like to just pretend that meat arrives on the table already perfectly prepared and that no work is required 🙂 denial yes, but it works.
